North American Executive Greg Carafello and franchisee John Applegate will discuss franchising at the International Franchise Expo in June.
The company reported on Carafello and Applegate’s free one-hour seminar at the International Franchise Expo event in New York, taking place on 20 June at the Javits Centre. The talk, entitled The franchisor-franchisee relationship: striking the perfect balance, will discuss “pitfalls and solutions for creating a successful franchise business that can be passed on to the next generation”.
The discussion will also “give entrepreneurs an inside view on how to be successful in franchising”, with Carafello having spent 11 years as an executive and Applegate running a franchise in Monmouth Junction, New Jersey. The store is run by Applegate and his son TJ, and was opened three years ago, with sales grown by “more than 40 percent per year since”.
